The Africans have generally done three things:
They have resisted invasion by force of arms like they did in Matabeleland in Zimbabwe against the British, how ever this was often a miss match as the Europeans had more and better guns against spears and muskets.Once occupied especially in Sub Saharan Africa they have either withdrawn their labour from the colonialists.Refused to pay colonial head tax, this was a tax system designed to force Africans who lived off the land into the cash economy controlled by the colonialists.These actions have generally lead to uprisings as a result of brutal colonial repression as a result.
